Biography

Hold on tight, or you'll fall off. Not that I'd mind if one of you did fall off.

— Futch

Futch is a Dragon Knight who was partnered with the dragon Black. During the Gate Rune War, Futch and Black were hired to escort Tir McDohl and his party to Magician's Island.

Later in the war, Futch and Black would be reunited with Tir when Tir came to Goya and helped to wake the dragons of their sleeping sickness. Futch and Black, after overhearing from Liukan that the Black Dragon Orchid could only be found in Gregminster Palace's Floating Garden, rushed off to gain the second ingredient by themselves.

At the Floating Garden, Futch found the Black Dragon Orchid with the help of Emperor Barbarosa Rugner. Although Barbarosa allowed Futch to take the flower, Windy attacked Futch as he was leaving, using magic to send them tumbling through the air. By the time Futch and Black were recovered by the Toran Liberation Army, Black was dead but Futch survived, holding the black dragon orchid in his hands.

After Futch woke, Joshua Levenheit told Futch that, as he had lost his dragon, he could no longer stay with the Dragon Knights^[1]. Futch thought that Black had allowed himself to die in order to save Futch's life^[2]. Joshua Levenheit asked Humphrey Mintz to look over Futch; after leaving Goya, Futch joined the Toran Liberation Army.

Futch spent much of his time with the Toran Liberation Army in mourning for Black^[3].

Following the end of the Toran Liberation War, Futch departed with Humphrey on a journey^[4].

Trivia

Futch's weapons in Suikoden and Suikoden II, Verserk, Sigmund, and Sigurd are all names of Norse heroes, although Verserk is a poor translation of Vorsung. Vorsong was the father of Sigmund, who in turn was the father of Sigurd, the slayer of Fafnir.

-Futch is a [[Dragon Knights|Dragon Knight]] who was partnered with the [[dragon]] [[Black]]. During the [[Gate Rune War]], Futch and Black were hired to escort [[Tir McDohl]] and his party to  [[Magician's Island]]. Futch introduced himself to the members of the [[Imperial Guard]] and promised that they would arrive at Magician's Island quickly<ref>"Isn't he cute? So you'll be going to Magician's Island. Black will take you there in no time. " - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Though Futch was not quite what many had thought of when they heard of the dragon knights<ref>"You're a Dragon Knight? You're just a punk." - Ted ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, Futch saw them to Magician's Island safely, and awaited at the shores for their return<ref>"Here we are. Speed make you dizzy? Well, my job ends here. I'll wait here until you're done. Be careful." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch grew impatient waiting for Tir and his party, and nearly left without them<ref>"Boy are they late. Hey Black, think we should leave? The Imperial Guard should be able to fend for themselves." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, but managed to wait it out until Tir and his party arrived, though he was still impatient to leave<ref>"It's about time. Hurry up and hop on, or we'll leave you behind." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch returned Tir and his party to [[Gregminster]]. His job completed, Futch thought he would take a look around and wondered if Black would enjoy visiting the theater <ref>"That's the end of my job. You all have to deliver the Astral Conclusions to the Commander. While I'm in the capital, I might as well take a look around. How would you like to go to the theater, Black?" - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

-Later in the war, Futch and Black would be reunited with Tir when Tir came to [[Goya]]<ref>"You're Tir, aren't you? Don't you remember me? It's Futch. I'm the one who took you to the Magician's Island on Black's back. What are you doing here?" - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch helped Milia inform [[Joshua Levenheit]] of Tir's arrival. When the [[Toran Liberation Army]] sent [[Liukan]] to inspect the sleeping dragons of the [[Dragon's Den]] and he revealed that the dragons had been poisoned, Futch said that he felt that someone had sneaked into the Dragon Knight's domain<ref>"I had a feeling somebody sneaked into our domain." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. In order to make an antidote, Millia and the Toran Liberation Army travelled to [[Seek Valley]] in order to gain one of the antidotes, [[Moonlight weed]]. At the same time, Futch and Black, hearing from Liukan that another needed item, the [[black dragon orchid]], could only be found in [[Gregminster Palace]]'s [[Floating Garden]], rushed off to gain the second ingredient by themselves<ref>"Futch went alone to Gregminster Palace to get it." - Joshua Levenheit ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

Futch and Black, after overhearing from [[Liukan]] that the [[Black Dragon Orchid]] could only be found in [[Gregminster Palace]]'s [[Floating Garden]], rushed off to gain the second ingredient by themselves.
-At the Floating Gardens of Gregminster, Futch searched for the flower most similar to the one that Liukan had described, eventually finding the Black Dragon Orchid<ref>"Damn, there are so many that I don't know which one is the black dragon orchid. Hmmm, this one looks most like the one that Liukan described." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch was aided in identifying the flower by Emperor [[Barbarosa Rugner]], who confirmed Futch's guess<ref>"You're right, that is a black dragon orchid." - Barbarosa Rugner ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. After questioning Futch, Barbarosa allowed him to leave, the flower in hand<ref>"Dragons? It must be Windy again. Young man, you must leave immediately." - Barbarosa Rugner ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch quickly followed Barbarosa's instructions to leave quickly<ref>"Phew! W-was that really the Emperor? Must have been. That sheer presence. But he sure was different from all those rumors. He let me go, and... Oh, well, now that I have the black dragon orchid, I'd better hurry home. Right, Black?" - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, but was unable to leave before Windy arrived. Windy, noting that she had arrived just in time<ref>"Oh, I'm just in time." - Windy ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, attacked Futch as he was leaving, declaring that he was an uncouth boy who needed to be taught a lesson<ref>"What an uncouth boy. You should be punished." - Windy ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Windy's magic struck Black and Futch and sent them tumbling through the air. By the time Futch and Black were recovered by the Toran Liberation Army, Black was dead<ref>"I'm afraid that when we found him, Black was already dead." - Milia ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Fortunately, Futch was still alive, and held the Black Dragon Orchid within his hands<ref>"Don't worry. When we found you unconscious in the forest, you had the black dragon orchid in your hand. We had a hard time prying it loose." - Milia ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

By the time Futch and Black were recovered by the [[Toran Liberation Army]], Black was dead but Futch survived, holding the black dragon orchid in his hands.
-When Futch awoke, Liukan told him that he had managed to make an antidote<ref>"Yes, I made the antitode from the three ingredients and gave them to the dragons. They should be awakening soon." - Liukan ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Futch asked Liukan what the third ingrediant was<ref>"Thank god. ......... Dr. Liukan, what was the third ingredient?" - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, and while Liukan proved hesitant to tell him<ref>"Harrumph! The th-third ingredient?" - Liukan([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, Joshua Levenheit eventually told Futch the truth: the third ingrediant had been Black's liver<ref>"......... I'll tell you. The third ingredient was a dragon's liver. And it came from..." - Joshua Levenheit ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.

Futch understood, and thought that Black had allowed himself to die in order to save Futch's life<ref>"I understand, sir. Black probably died to save my life." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref><ref>"I'm all right. I just want to believe that Black saved me." - Futch ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Joshua Levenheit asked a friend of his, [[Humphrey Mintz]], to look over Futch, claiming that he would not worry about Futch while he was with Humphrey. Joshua Levenheit urged Futch to take care, noting that he may one day be able to return to Goya<ref>"Futch, take care. Someday you may be able to return." - Joshua Levenheit ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. [[Flik]], attempting to cheer up Futch, offered to teach him how to wield a sword<ref>"Hey, don't look so depressed. I'll teach you how to use a sword." - Flik ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
